Jesse Lingard on Spurs radar, will now definitely leave his club for free in summer

That's even more of a positive sign of support than it used to be, considering the modern shirt prices.

Consider the ubiquity of dhgate knockoffs though. Not that I'd ever get one for my lad

Barely. Lingard's played half the mins Eriksen has, too, with the added factor of being practically ignored (form, confidence etc).

You're looking at the last few months. I've been talking about over the course of their careers.

I have no idea how the logic for that would work. You'd never sign a younger player

To quote my earlier reply to you:
"History suggests that Eriksen is far more likely than Lingard to contribute enough goals & assists from a wide-forward position."

Aside from a 10-game purple patch last season, Lingard has been less creative and less productive than Kulusevski has been this season. Conversely, Eriksen has previously demonstrated that he can be even more creative and even more productive than either of them ever has been. Surely that's the evidence a club would be more likely to sign a player on, rather Eriksen's current stats after returning from a six-month absence (it's logical that his form is likely to improve, not decline, the more he plays since his hiatus).

If you want to limit the comparison to this season, you should consider that Eriksen is currently playing as a CM, while Lingards has been playing in more advanced roles (where goals and assists come with the territory).
